Pilgrim High School held its annual athletic awards ceremony and dinner on Tuesday, May 29, where it announced an MVP and Sportsmanship Award winner for each sport. A Female and Male Athlete of the Year were also chosen, and Female and Male Sportsmanship Awards were also presented.

The female Athlete of the Year was Susie Cavanagh, who was a standout in field hockey, ice hockey and on the golf course. Cavanagh was a First-Team All-State performer in field hockey, skated second line for the boys’ ice hockey team and recently finished second in the girls’ state golf tournament.

The Male Athlete of the Year was Ian Giuttari, who was the Pats’ anchor in goal on the hockey team, was a standout on the soccer field and also played No. 1 on the school’s boys’ tennis team. Giuttari led Pilgrim to a berth in the state semifinals in hockey this year, and he helped the Pats earn three wins in tennis this spring after the team posted a winless 2011 campaign.

The Female Sportsmanship Awards was given to Erin Phaneuf, while the Male Sportsmanship Award was given to Doug Ferry.
